Introduction
The area of Trogir and Seget and along the Bay of Kastela was chosen for their settlements by the Greeks and the Romans, with a very good reason. Today on this area new settlements were made, and its becoming more crowded for all those who wish to enjoy the same as the ancient settlers. Moderate mediterranean climate and vegetation, fertile soil, especially in the area of Kastela, should combine to make this area a true "Croatian California".
Still, to keep things from being so idyllic people, in the last 50 years, built a numerous cement, metallurgic, chemical, shipbuilding and other industries in the area of east Kastela, which is now lost to tourism. Still, the western area, with center in Trogir, inscribed in the UNESCO register of cultural heritage, offers many ways for rest, entertainment, sports and recreation. Riviera Trogir (Trogir- Seget- Marina - Okrug) presents an area of moderate adriatic climate and rich subtropical vegetation , archipelago of picturesque islands in whose inlets lie small fishing villages and hidden pebble beaches, beauty and diversity of folklore, picturesque rustic architecture, modern tourist facilities for rest, recreation and entertainment on summer and in winter, traditional hospitality, dalmatian specialties, fishing and fishermen's nights, festivals of adriatic folklore and concerts of classical music in the medieval environment of the city.
History
As we said before, people first discovered the advantages of this area long ago, so that after the Greeks and Romans (who named their settlement Tragurium) came Croats who managed to retain the status of a free city for a long time, probably thanks to its good defensive position (Trogir lies between the mainland and the island of Ciovo). When Venetia bought Dalmatia in 1409. , Trogir refused to acknowledge the new ruler, and was bombarded in retribution. Still unlike the rest of Dalmatian cities it managed to preserve its independence and freedom, the fruits of which we see today in impressive buildings and artwork of Trogir.
The whole area, especially Kastela was inhabited more intensively during the Turkish invasion 500 years ago, when Croats retreated and built fortresses alongside the sea (Kastele) around which today's settlements arose All this is supported by abundant archeological evidence, a part of which can be seen in museums in Trogir and Kastela
